One Feature of yiotoria,s life.

Fifty years is a wholesome, ordinary
lifetime, let alone being a queen for all
that time. Without harping too much
upon a theme destined to be twanged at
beyond all patience within the next few
weeks, may 1 ask the reader-the lady
reader in particular to try to imagine
one little phase of the royal life2 Sup

Generosity Tempered with Philosophy.

A poor woman walked into a Sixth
avenue bakery and asked for something
to eat. The proprietor Immediately
handed out a couple of rolls and three
buns.
"Have you many such cases?'
"'Half a dozen a day."
"And do you always give them what
they ask for?''
Yes. There's scarcely a baker in
New York but feeds half a dozen. We
are about as well off, for the bread or
rolls are not real fresh, although not
stale. And it is a sweet morsel to a
hungry man or woman. New York

In some parts of the wine district of
France the church bells are tolled when
there is likely to be a frost severe enough
to hurt the vines. The inhabitants at
once hurry out of their houses and
place quantities of tar between the rows
of vines. Then a signal is given to light
the tar, and in a few minutes a dense
cloud of smoke arises which completely
protects the vines from the frost.-New

MARRIAGE.

Then follow, happiest ladyi
Follow him thou lowest wholly;
The hour is come to follow now
The soul thy spells have led;
His are thy breasts like jasper cups,
And his thine eyes like planets: o
Thy fragrant hair, thy stately neck,
Thy queenly, sumptuous head,
Thy soft, small feet, thy perfect lips,
Thy teeth like JASMINE petals,
Thy cleaning, rounded shoulders
And long caressing arms.

We often read of the happy family of

on the plains does not coincide with this
idea. Usually, the snake and the owl
occupy the deserted house of the dog.
These have branches, and each of the
family occupies a separate ba4e. The dog
and the snake have no affinity, and IN
the rare cases where the three have been

March.

"March comes in like lion and goes
out like a lamb" This is generally true
of the third month of the year in north
ern ATTITUDES. But the 'fOlk lore" OF the
bleak north does not fit into this lati-
tude March came in like lamb yester-
day, and there need be very little appre-
hension of its going out like lion. In
deed, there was some justification for a
breezy time, for was not yesterday ST..
David's Day, and sacred to Welshmen.
st. Chad's festival falls upon the I'd (to-
day. St. Gregory has the 18th sacred to
his name, and the 18th is dedicated to
st. Patrick. This Saints day is be-
lieved to be more universally kept, with
public rejoicings, than that of any other
Saint in the Calendar. 1t is a national
holiday in this Kingdom also, Kane
hameha III having had the good fortune
of being born on St. Patrick's Day
There are other Saints days in March,
but as the Lenten fast runs right through
it nothing more need be said on that
head. The astronomical notes of various
almanacs show that there will be high
jinks among the stars, but nothing to
attract vulgar notice.

This, however, may have been too
practical a suggestion, or it may have
involved more work than is contem-
plated by the Minister under whose
direction the repairs are being done
We are thankful, however, that any
thing is being attempted in the way OF
street repairs. 1t is an admission on the
part of the Government that repairs are
needed. This is the first step towards
improvement; the next step will follow
when the extent of that necessity is
recognized. A careful inspection of
the various streets and suburban roads
must convince even His ExcelIency Mr.
Aholo that it will be dangerous to delay
road repairs.

THE FUTURE OUTLOOK.

The erection of new buildings IN the
burned district found profitable employ
ment for skilled labor for nearly a wear
past, and put great deal of money into
circulation in the city. This source of
employment will soon be dried up
although Mr.. NJ. McInerny has set to
work Oh a new block on the corner of Mer-
chant and Fort streets. This, however,
is the only new and costly building OF
which We have any knowledge, and it
will not supply the place of those which
have been completed in the employment
of labor. At the same time it is strik
ing proof of confidence in the business
tuture of Honolulu by one Of its old resi-
dents and business men at time when
here is so much doubt and uncertainty
abroad
And we think that this confidence is
not misplaced. The geographical posi-
ion of Honolulu and the certain devel-
opment of ocean travel must tell in its
ilvor. What is needed now is intelli-
gent progress. Every step taken by pri
yate capitalists should be on this line.
The true course of the Government is
early defined. 1t is to spend all avail
ole money on Harbor improvement.
The Harbor will make Honolulu. 1t has
efficient back country to build up
-ood sized town, but the trouble is that
mis- land is not available for agricultural
purposes. 1t is nearly all tied up either
a long leases or held in fee in large
locks, and is producing a minimum of
results. If it were leased in small tracts
Tor long terms of years, or sold in con-
venient sized farms, the available land
tributary to Honolulu would support a
large producing population, but mas
much as this is not likely to happen in
me near future, we must look to the
Iiarbor to promote the growth OF the
city.
There is nothing new in this, and we
claim no originality for the thought;
nevertheless it loses nothing by repeti

judgment. The temperance campaign

almost general testimony that this mis-
sion has been more beneficial in it's re-
suits than any similar mission on these
Islands. Mr.. Booth did not resort to
sensational methods, and this had a
good deal to do with his success. He
was also reasonable and tolerant, and
this perhaps had still more to do with
the result. 1t is to be hoped that those
who joined the temperance brigade will
stand firm. Society will be the gamer

French and German Music.

Snatching up his Guarnerius viola Mr..
Walter E. Cotton, the violin maker, illus
trated to me the difference between the
German and French shoots. While one
was solid, Teutonic as it were, the other
was light, airy and even sensuous. 1t
is a difference between natiOnalit1es, he
said, the while drawing melody soft and
low from the 150-year-old instrument.
1.-The German nature is slower and heav-
Ter than the French. n hOmely smile
would be as the difference between the
effect of a glass of porter and one OF
champagne. One makes you somewhat
heavy and just little stupid, while the
other makes the blood course through
your veins faster than before. When it
comes to playing classical composition,
possibly FTencbman will execute 1t as
well as a German, but in lighter cOmpo-
sitiOnS the former is far superior to the
latter. If a German has got a chord to
draw he draws it heavy. The French
schools in Paris and Brussels are under
the charge of the government, which
desires to encourage music. The teaching
of music is also a national matter"
''Of the two schools which do you pre-
fer?''
THE French within its limits, because
it wears better than the German. One
can't hear classical music forever. Beet
hOven and MendelSsOhn are good in their
way, but a surfeit of their compositions
tires one. 1t is the little touches here
and there, the light and shade, which is
the chief charm of the French school, and
which makes it attractive. The fancy
frills are the invention of recent years.
A German viOlinist requires a long bow.
The Germans have the soul and appre
ciate the works of the ancient composers,
perhaps, better than the French Beet
no 5en's concert is, no doubt, more lasting
than Sarasat's Spanish dance, but which
at the time is the more pleasing of the
two? The Spanish dance with its life

always looking out for style.-Brooklyn

otherwise, and especially in modern

no excuse, the foreign pronunciation is
the only accurate one. !"
